Assign issues permission

Ramiro Justet

I have setted the Assign Issues permission to a role, but it doesen't work.

This role does not have Edit Issues permission... is it necessary?

Thanks

Hi @Ramiro Justet

It shouldn't be necessary. 

To confirm upfront:

• Browse Projects: The user will need to be able to see the project / issues to assign users to them
• Assignable User: The users being assigned will need this permission to allow them to be assigned to an issue in the project

Then, once you've provided the user(s) with Assign Issues permission:

• Go to an Issue in that project
• Look to the navigation buttons - next to Comment should be a button "Assign"
• Press button, assign users

I tested this on Cloud without edit permissions and it worked fine. You can't inline edit the assignee as this does class as "editing" the issue - but the assign button is the workaround to that.
